Izzy is starting as a background process. How can this be changed?

Yeah it's working I tested it a couple of times. Tried adding more projectors but now Izzy won't start... I'm using 3.1.26, time to upgrade I guess.

Excellent! I hope that the stage / display assignments are the same next time you reboot, of if one of your displays accidentely gets disconnected again. 

Thanks to both of you for your help. I deleted all the stages and re-did them and so far so good... Can't believe it could be so simple, LOL.

An ongoing issue with Windows and Isadora remembering stage/projector assignments.

The only reliable way I have found to solve this is by using EDID Emulators.

I have found that these work well. They've pretty cheap, and are an essential part of my setup.

Best of luck.

@dusx hello, yes i have Nahimic

I have a project which several scenes, and it receives timecode from another computer.

Let's say I have a list with timecode intervals, something like:

Scene 1: 00:00:00:00 - 00:02:30:00
Scene 2: 00:02:30:01 - 00:05:00:00

And I want to create an actor that will read the incoming MTC and immediately jump to the correct scene.

I have done something similar that worked (see pic), but it was kinda exhaustive because I had to input all the intervals manually, and I was thinking about something more dynamic, maybe with JavaScript and a text file with the intervals? Any other ideas?

If you are looking to output only the two blended images you don't need the first two stages you created. The blended stage will output to two projectors.

When you're looking at your blended stage in stage setup, you have two tabs beside the word 'stage'. In your case right now they say 4 and 5. By clicking these you can see which physical projector the stage is connected to. 

Once you remove the other two singular stages and ensure that the blended stages are being sent to the same physical projectors that those were previously connected to you should see the output you expect.

I'm new to the Blend Maker tool. I'm running a Mac Pro to two identical projectors. I'm not using a splitter; using the HDMI output to one projector and usbc adapter to the other projector.

I've got the setup going but when I preview Stage 3 (which combines stages 1 and 2), it doesn't send the blended image to go to the projectors. It just goes into force preview mode on my laptop screen. It I'm attaching screenshots of my Stage Setup Screen on my patch. Thank you for any help on this!

You could try clearing the Isadora preferences from the menu. 

I think you need to restart windows, get it so it remembers everything cleanly on reboot, then open Isadora and fix any stage assignments. 

If windows is struggling it will be an issue.
